Breast Lift

As gravity works its magic and with the passing of time, many women experience sagging or drooping breasts. A breast lift, or mastopexy, offers a solution to this, reshaping the breasts to give them a more youthful and perky appearance.

From a medical standpoint, a Mastopexy, more commonly known as a breast lift, provides an extensive range of benefits beyond mere physical enhancements. This surgical procedure performed at Cades Clinic is known for its exceptional capability to restore mammary ptosis, or sagging breasts, which can often occur as a result of postpartum hormonal changes, lactation, or significant weight fluctuations.

Mastopexy reinstates the breasts to their previous perkiness, combating the effects of gravity and time by lifting and recontouring the breast tissue. The surgery can dramatically rejuvenate the physical appearance of the breasts, restoring them to a firmer and more youthful state.

Furthermore, for some patients experiencing macromastia or hypermastia – conditions characterized by overly large and heavy breasts – a breast lift can be a source of profound relief. By reshaping and repositioning the breasts, the surgery can alleviate physical discomfort and symptoms like back pain, shoulder grooves, or intertrigo (skin irritation).

Thus, a breast lift serves dual purposes: improving aesthetic appeal and enhancing physical wellbeing. In doing so, it significantly contributes to boosting women’s self-esteem and overall quality of life.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
About Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure aimed at increasing breast size. It’s typically done by placing silicone or saline breast implants, though fat transfer may also be an option.

A good candidate for breast augmentation is generally a woman in good physical health, has realistic expectations, and believes her breasts are too small or one is smaller than the other, or wants to restore breast volume lost due to weight loss or pregnancy.

As with any surgery, there are risks including infection, changes in nipple or breast sensation, poor scarring, or complications from anesthesia. Implants also have risks including rupture or leakage, capsular contracture, or the need for additional surgeries to replace the implants over time.

  • As with any surgical procedure, a breast lift has potential risks, including bleeding, infection, changes in nipple or breast sensation, scarring, or complications from anesthesia. However, these risks are typically low, especially when the procedure is performed by an experienced surgeon.

There will be some scarring, but its visibility depends on the incision techniques used, individual healing, and scar care post-surgery. Surgeons at Cades Clinic work meticulously to minimize and strategically place these scars so that they can be easily hidden by bras or swimwear.

Recovery periods can vary but generally, patients can return to work within a week and resume normal activities after several weeks. Your surgeon will provide specific guidelines based on your individual circumstances.

The lifespan of breast implants varies, but it’s important to note that they are not considered lifetime devices. An individual may need to have the implants replaced if there are complications or if the size and shape of the breasts change over time.

Breast Lift (Step-by-Step)

At Cades Clinic, our highly trained and experienced surgeons carry out the Mastopexy

(breast lift) procedure with precision and utmost care.

The process involves several well-coordinated steps

1.Anesthesia

The procedure begins with the administration of general anesthesia, ensuring the patient’s comfort by inducing unconsciousness for the duration of the surgery.

3.Incision

The surgeon then proceeds to make an incision on the breast. The pattern of this incision depends on factors such as the degree of breast sagging, size and position of the areolas, and the patient’s specific goals. Common patterns include periareolar (around the areola), vertical (around the areola and vertically down to the breast crease), or inverted T (around the areola, vertically down to the breast crease, and horizontally along the breast crease).

5.Repositioning of Breast Tissues

Once the incision is made, the surgeon removes the excess skin and reshapes the breast tissue, effectively lifting and firming the breast. The nipple and areola, which remain tethered to the underlying tissue for vital blood supply, are then repositioned to a more elevated, youthful position on the chest.

2.Closure of the Incision

After the reshaping and repositioning of breast tissues, the incision is meticulously closed using sutures or skin adhesives to minimize scarring. A surgical bra or elastic bandage might be placed over the breasts to support the new contour during the healing process.

4.Post-Operative Care and Recovery

Post-operation, patients are closely monitored in a recovery room for any potential complications. The recovery timeline can vary, but typically, patients are discharged within a few days. A gradual return to non-strenuous work is often possible after two weeks, provided the healing process is uneventful.

6.Continued Medical and Nutritional Support

One of the distinct advantages of opting for a procedure at Cades Clinic is our continued support post-surgery. We stay connected with our patients after they return home, providing crucial medical advice and personalized dietary plans curated by our on-board nutritionist.

(Step-by-Step)

Anesthesia

As with any surgical procedure, the first step in breast augmentation surgery is the administration of anesthesia to ensure the comfort of the patient.

Incision

Depending on the type of breast implant, degree of enlargement desired, patient’s anatomy, and surgeon’s recommendation, the incision can be made either in the crease under the breast (inframammary), in the armpit (transaxillary), or around the nipple (periareolar).

Implant Insertion

The breast implant is then inserted into a pocket either under the pectoral muscle (submuscular) or directly behind the breast tissue,over the pectoral muscle (submammary/subglandular).

Closure of Incision

Once the breast implant is in place,
the incisions are closed with layered sutures in the breast tissue and with sutures, skin adhesive, or surgical tape to close the skin.

Post-Operative Care and Recovery

After the procedure, the patient’s breasts are wrapped in gauze or a surgical bra. A drainage tube may also be used for the removal of any excess blood or fluid. Post-surgery, patients are closely monitored in a recovery room.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

About Breast Reduction

Breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to reduce the size of large, heavy breasts to alleviate symptoms such as back and neck pain, skin irritation, and difficulty with physical activities.

Women with large breasts that cause physical discomfort or emotional distress, and who are in good overall health, are typically good candidates for breast reduction surgery.

As with any surgery, there are risks. These may include infection, changes in nipple or breast sensation, poor scarring, or complications from anesthesia. There is also the risk of unevenly positioned nipples or unevenly sized breasts.

Recovery periods can vary but generally, patients can return to work and social activities within 2 to 3 weeks post-surgery. Full recovery and the ability to resume strenuous exercise generally take about 4 to 6 weeks.

Insurance Coverage

At Cades Clinic, we understand the financial aspects of medical procedures can be a concern. Some insurance plans may cover breast reduction if the surgery is deemed medically necessary. Our team can help guide you through the process of understanding your insurance coverage.

Breast Implant Removal

Breast implant removal, also known as explantation, is a surgical procedure that involves removing breast implants and the surrounding scar tissue. The procedure can be done for various reasons, such as implant rupture, capsular contracture, dissatisfaction with the size or shape of the implants, or to address health concerns related to breast implants.

Breast Implant Removal procedure typically involves making incisions around the breast and removing the implant. Depending on the individual case, the implant might be removed through the same incision used during the initial surgery, or through a new incision. After the implant is removed, the surgeon will typically close the incision with sutures. Recovery time varies, but patients can generally expect some pain, swelling, and bruising for a few weeks. It’s important to have a thorough discussion with your surgeon about the benefits and risks of the procedure prior to making a decision.

Inverted Nipple Operation

An inverted nipple operation, also known as a breast revision, is a surgical procedure that corrects inverted or retracted nipples. Inverted nipples are a condition where the nipples are pulled inward and do not protrude normally. The procedure typically involves making an incision around the areola, releasing the ducts and ligaments that are pulling the nipple in. And reshaping the tissue to achieve a more natural-looking nipple. After the procedure, the incision is closed with sutures. In some cases, the surgeon may use a special device, called a nipple suture, to maintain the position of the nipple after the surgery.

Recovery time can vary, but patients can expect some pain, swelling, and bruising for a few weeks. It’s important to have a thorough discussion with your surgeon about the benefits and risks of the procedure prior to making a decision.
